De http://www.intel.com/design/modems/products/536ep.htm The 536EP chipset consists of the DQ82536EP Digital Signal Processor (DSP), and MD1724 Analog Front End (AFE) or silicon Data Access Arrangement (DAA). >>> Host-based controller software contains code for all controller functions for data (including error correction and data compression), fax and voice modes. <<< All digital signal processing functions are performed by the DSP including modulation, echo cancellation, call progress monitoring and voice processing. De http://www.idir.net/~gromitkc/winmodem.html So-called Winmodems, host-based, HCF-, HSP-, HSF-, controllerless, host-controlled, and soft modems require vendor-supplied software to do the work of proper hardware modems. The sale of these devices for x86-based PCs is becoming increasingly popular among retailers and OEMs because of their lower cost. Since 1998, my opinion on these devices has been tempered by changes in: * how the chip-makers and modem-makers have acknowledged the growing base of Linux users, * the installed base of PCs that are capable of using a host-based modem without significant impact on the CPU, and * the emergence of PC motherboards with AC'97 capability. This section used to say: However, Winmodems are only appropriate for use with Microsoft Windows on a fast Pentium. I'm not sure this blanket statement is still true. As evidenced by the big list, there are many GNU/Linux users using their "linmodems" with varying degrees of success. On the other hand, this does not help all the *BSD users, the x86 Solaris users, and others who would also benefit from non-proprietary software drivers. De http://linmodems.org/#open Open Source Linmodems * Pavel Machek and Richard have some code to try out with lucent winmodems. It will get the phone on- and off-hook, and can do full-duplex transmission and receiving. * Mikhail Moreyra has written a driver for the CL-MD5620DT (Ambient Tech) chipset. It does PPP. Lo mejor: vaya a la tienda, haga una lista de los modems que hay all�, vuelva a casa, vaya a la p�gina de Gromit (segundo link citado arriba), compare. Una vez que tenga una lista de los modems (los de verdad) que se venden en Costa Rica, manda eso a esta lista y as� otra gente se beneficia del trabajo. Si alguien tiene una Palm o similar, se puede ahorrar el trabajo de ir a la casa a comparar la lista. Puede simplemente poner la lista en la Palm y sacar una tarde para visitar tiendas.
